Hi Alec,

Thank you for your answer.

I am afraid I cannot fully understand your comments. Here's the definition
of the fold 80 base penalty from Picard:

FOLD_80_BASE_PENALTY: The fold over-coverage necessary to raise 80% of
bases in "non-zero-cvg" targets to the mean coverage level in those targets.

According to the definition it is not required that more than 80% of the
bases in the target should have coverage.

What I understand is that the fold 80 base penalty is the fold
over-coverage needed to raise 80% of bases in covered targets to the mean
coverage. As far as I see it, it should not matter how many bases are
actually covered in the target.

What do you think?

Thank you all once again.

Best wishes,

Esteban
